Paris backs army aid conference

France is preparing to host an international conference in Paris on September 17th to support the Lebanese Army, aiming to raise around $3 billion out of a total of $9 billion to meet its financial and logistical needs. The conference seeks to empower the army to extend its authority over the entire Lebanese territory, especially along the southern borders, through the provision of advanced weapons and equipment, and to plan for the post-UNIFIL period after its mandate ends early next year. More than 50 countries and international organizations will participate in the conference, which focuses on supporting the army’s capabilities and achieving security stability in Lebanon.
